Abstract/Summary
The thesis aims to showcase the two distinguishable cultures, Chinese and Filipino, side by side and highlights their diversity with a positive approach on cultural differences through a bilingual (Chinese and English) children's book and to be a medium to encourage young readers to embrace multiculturalism and help them become aware of the sameness of their own culture with others.
